Us.

It was the first day of spring break and me and nick were apart, we would always come to our window at top noon and communicate with each other. We were never like other people, Nick had a kidney disease and i had critical disease. My mother didn't tell me what disease i had so i wouldn't worry.

I always had to isolate and was never aloud to leave the house.It was top noon and me and nick were set.The way we communicated was sign language. i was diagnosed with no hearing but nick could hear.My mother tapped me on the shoulder and signaled me for dinner i waved goodbye to Nick and left.

I finished Mums family secret turnip stew recipe and headed to bed. The starry night glinted upon us and was cleared,it was time for the morning.

I went down stair to greet my mother when i saw my dad, I Ericka Nastle hasn't have good terms with my father. He cheated on my mother twice and comes for an apology?

I stormed off to my room and slammed the door, I saw the door creek open and it was him.I pointed my finger to the right side that meant "Go".He went and left a note behind with a small box.

'Dear Ericka Nastle i am so sorry to everything i did to our family and left you and mum i was a selfish men back then but now i have changed, i got you some hearing aids for you hope you can forgive me By Dad.'

Tears fell down and i whispered to myself "i did wrong" and it was true in my generation we have to forgive and forget. I put on the hearing aids and ran to my window, i pointed my finger to my ear and showed Nick he was surprised and happy for me!

We jumped up and down as we were celebrating, i really wish we could see each other face to face but we can not and we understand that. I went to apologize to my father for the incident.

We forgave and forged the past.

i was testing my hearing aids when i heard dad get a serious call "Lodge You have been accepted as one of our new employee" The man said.

"That is AMAZING!! Thank you sir" My dad Pleased

I went to reach for a hug and signed dad a congratulation award :)

Days past when mother got a phone call i wondered what happened? Mother went silent for a whole minuet, i went to see what was going and asked mum by writing a note.

I was shocked of what she just told me- Nick Milestone died.

2009-2020 He past away since he had a kidney disease........I wonder how the family are feeling.? I had no words to express but just cry, he was the most supportive friend ever and was always there for me and is still looking upon me. Nick if your seeing this above me thank you for all the goods you did to me may god grant you with joy up there <3 At one point i will be gone and meet Nick up and play. May he rest in peace, it was the afternoon and all day i was in my room i was to upset to even bother eat. My mother came in "Honey i am so sorry were all upset would you like to come eat i am sure your hungry" She said. I ignored and went turned to the other side in the memory of him i went to my window and sat there.

Later years past and i have graduated from Uni me and Nick would of been together but its okay i am doing this journey for my family and him. I have become a top doctor to study on hearts and kidneys.I now live by myself and no need to worry i have a friendly roommate that lives with me Ashley and i take medication everyday to protect myself. My "disease" was fake my mother only wanted to protect me from the real world which i understand.

I went to make a some ice coffee when all of a sudden a fell to the ground and my eyes started to roll all over. I knew i was having a seizure and its normal but this one was different. i tried to reach for my bag but i couldn't my body wasn't letting me to.

"what am i doing here?" I mumbled

"you had a strong seizure Ericka" Ashley spoke

I thought i was alright i didn't even know how i got here.

"you was going to die but a miracle happened your dog barked so loud one of your neighbors came and saw you had a seizure" The doctor replied

Was this a sign of Nick saving me? I hope it was. Thank you Nick.

"you will be out and ready to go home in a few ours" Doctor said.

i was feeling a bit dizzy and down i did not know what to do.

i reached for Ashley hand and thanked her for supporting me through this rough journey.

I automatically fell asleep and had a weird dream of Nick and me talking but his dead body was next to me-

I woke up stressed and saw i was in my bed... was that a dream the whole time??? I was heavily breathing and asked Ashley.

"yes...? why are you even up so late? Your mother and dad drove you here with me." Ashley said with a tired voice

"i am so sorry to wake you up" was i dreaming i asked to myself?

It was 3:54 pm and i was still wondering why i had that dream it FELT SO REAL! I must be just fooling... I skipped a day of work since the 'Incident' from yesterday.

I went to visit my family to spend time since anything can happen to them i always have to be grateful that my mother brought me to this earth without her i wouldn't be here where i am or even meet my amazing friends Ashley or Nick!
